Our youngest granddaughter wanted to brush my hair and I said go gently duck its been inside a hairnet since six and she took that ever so seriously, one little bit at a time while I sat on the floor against the settee. Felt lovely having somebody fiddle with it without a rush and I nearly nodded off, then she put about twelve clips down one side and said finished. Getting off the floor was another matter, Kev had to give me a hand and the clips all slid towards my ear. My scalp still feels warm now and Ive left two in because she said they were the special ones. Look like Im going to a party at the Co-op xx

Our lad came down while I was watching telly and asked if there was any of that cake left, then sat and ate it with me instead of taking it back to his room. I was ever so pleased and tried not to make a fuss because hes not a child coming home from school, even if he is in the same bedroom again. We laughed at an advert and he told me something daft from work. I nearly asked if he was feeling better after everything with the divorce but it was nice just having the chat. Cut him another piece instead. He said mum this is enormous, well it was the end bit, somebody had to have it xx

Ive been looking at a knitting pattern that says easy and I dont think the lady who wrote it has met anybody normal, theres a little star halfway down and Im meant to go back to it but which bit am I repeating. The tiny hats I can do while talking and watching Corrie, this one has me counting out loud with the telly paused. Kev asked what I was making and I said at present a very long mistake. I want to finish it though because the picture is lovely and the wool is already paid for. Taking it to bingo to ask one of the girls, somebody will know what that star is doing xx
